His latest success came in the 2024 UEFA Super Cup, as Carlo Ancelotti’s side saw off Atalanta 2-0. New ‘Galactico’ Kylian Mbappe was on target in that contest, as the current holders of the Champions League crown picked up another piece of silverware.

Modric was the man to lift the trophy – his first as captain of Real. He now has more winners’ medals than any other Madrid player. His haul includes five UEFA Super Cups, six Champions Leagues, five FIFA Club World Cups, four La Liga titles, two Copas del Rey and five Spanish Super Cups.
WHAT NEXT?
The evergreen 38-year-old now sits one trophy clear of former Real skipper Nacho, who left Santiago Bernabeu as a free agent this summer. Euro 2024 winner Dani Carvajal also has 26 successes to his name, while Karim Benzema and Marcelo sit on 25 wins apiece.
